Embodiment Construction

[0069] image 3 A flow chart of the policy control method for implementing BBF access in the present invention, such as image 3 shown, including:

[0070] Step 300: Set an FMC policy function (PF, Policy Function) in the mobile network that the user currently requests to access.

[0071] The FMC PF can be used as an independent functional entity; the FMC PF can also be integrated in the PCRF.

[0072] When the user is not roaming, the mobile network that the user requests to access is the public land mobile network (PLMN) to which the user belongs; when the user is roaming, the mobile network that the user requests to access is the PLMN that the user visits.

[0073] Step 301: After receiving the trigger message from the ePDG, the FMC PF requests the BPCF to establish a policy control session.

[0074] After the UE accesses the BBF access system, the BBF access system will assign a local IP address to the UE; then, the UE initiates the Internet Key Exchange Version 2 (IKEv...

Abstract

The invention discloses a policy control method and system for realizing BBF (Broadband Forum) access. The policy control method comprises the steps of: setting an FMC PF (Fixed Mobile Coverage Policy Function) in a mobile network where a user requests to access currently; after the FMC PF receives a triggering message from an ePDG (Evolved Packet Data Gateway), requesting for establishing a policy control session to a BPCF (Broadband Policy Control Framework); and performing reception control by the BPCF according to a QoS (Quality of Service) message sent from the FMC PF through the policy control session. It can be seen from the implementation of the method disclosed by the invention that when the UE accesses to 3GPP (Third Generation Partnership Project) through the BBF, the FMC PF senses the triggering message from the ePDG so that a request of policy session initiated from a PCRF (Policy and Charging Rules Function) of the 3GPP access network where the UE accesses currently to a BPCF (Broadband Policy Control Framework) is triggered. Thus, in case that a BBF access network fails in sensing the access of the UE or does not support 3GPP-based access authentication in the current architecture where the UE accesses into the 3GPP core network through the BBF access network, the QoS control on the UE access is realized, and consequently, QoS assurance is provided for the whole transmission path of the data.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the interconnection and intercommunication between 3GPP and Broadband Forum (BBF, Broadband Forum), in particular to a policy control method and system for realizing BBF access. Background technique [0002] figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the structure of the evolved packet system (EPS, Evolved Packet System) of the existing 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP, 3rd Generation Partnership Project), in figure 1 The EPS network architecture shown in the non-roaming scenario includes an Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network (E-UTRAN, Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network), a Mobility Management Entity (MME, Mobility Management Entity), and a service gateway (S-GW, Serving Gateway), Packet Data Network Gateway (P-GW, Packet Data Network Gateway, also known as PDN GW), Home Subscriber Server (HSS, Home Subscriber Server), Policy and Charging Rule Function (PCRF, Policy and Charging Rules Functi...
